Records QA's cross-node smoke attempt 2026-04-26: infrastructure
fully verified READY (m01+M02 reachability, SMB share for binary
distribution, master cross-node listen, network OK), but cluster
bring-up blocked at V3-internal gate.
Symptom: blockvolume on both nodes connects to master but logs
"durable open: frontend: volume not ready" — never reaches steady
state, status endpoint never binds, master log shows no heartbeat
or assignment-mint events.
Hand-off contents:
- §1 specific questions for sw (5 gaps to fill)
- §2 infrastructure verified READY (no action needed)
- §3 copy-pasteable commands sw can run/debug
(build → topology → master → primary → replica → cleanup)
- §4 QA's hypothesis on the gap (assignment-from-master flow)
- §5 debug suggestions for sw (log levels, integration test
references)
- §6 G5-4 script skeleton current state
- §7 QA's next steps once sw answers
Working dirs reproducible:
- Binaries: /mnt/smb/work/share/g5-binaries/{blockmaster,blockvolume}
- Run state: /tmp/g5sm/ on both nodes
- Logs: /tmp/g5sm/logs/{master,primary,replica}.log
Blocks: G5-4 implementation work (script scenario bodies, hardware
first-light scenarios). Does NOT block QA scenario authoring at
component scope (Cluster framework already covers that).

V2 Design
This directory currently contains both the active V2 design canon and a large set of working notes, migration packs, and historical comparison material.
Use this README as the navigation layer. If a document is not listed under
Core Canon, treat it as supporting or historical context rather than the
current source of truth.
Core Canon
These are the documents that define the current V2 model and should be read first.
v2-protocol-truths.md— the stable semantic rulesv2-sync-recovery-protocol.md— sync, keepup, catchup, and rebuild protocol meaningv2-rebuild-mvp-session-protocol.md— rebuild session contract and data/control lanesv2-automata-ownership-map.md— assignment, session, and projection ownershipv2-protocol-claim-and-evidence.md— claims and current proof posturev2-validation-matrix.md—Rebuild Ready,Restore Ready, andV2 Readygatesv2-capability-map.md— capability-to-proof-tier mappingv2-proof-and-retest-pyramid.md— proof layering and retest strategy
Implementation Guides
These help maintainers understand how the current model maps into code.

Validation And Rollout
These define how the active design is validated, staged, or operationalized.

Working Reference
These are still useful, but they are not the shortest route to the current truth.

Migration And Historical Working Set
These files are mostly valuable for reconstruction of design history, migration intent, or earlier prototype shapes. They should usually not be the first docs opened during current development.

Cleanup Rule
When a document is superseded, prefer:
- keeping one canonical file in
Core Canon - leaving older reasoning in
Migration And Historical Working Set - avoiding duplicate "read first" lists across many files
Future cleanup should physically move or archive files only after their inbound references are reviewed.
Execution Note
- active development tracking lives under
../.private/phase/ - current phase contract and slice packages live there rather than in this directory
The original project-level copies under learn/projects/sw-block/design/
remain as shared references for now.
